    Needle size for DECA

    I have 18 g needles for deca and i know those are huge. What do you guys reccomend to use??

    23 or 25 gauge. I would only use 18's to draw out of the vial with.

    I wouldn't even draw with an 18 because they are so large they tear the top of the vial. I use a 20 or 21 for drawing and a 25 for injecting.

    But I think the bigger question here is that you are only asking what size for deca. Does this mean you already have an idea what size to run for test? Or does this mena you have no plans to run test?

    I know what to do test with because of past cycles. I've never used DECA before and the offer is on the table along with a whole cycle. That is why I was asking. I used 23g for test in case that is what you are looking for.

    Actually, I am just checking to make sure that you are not running a deca only cycle. Your initial post seemd to point in that direction, and I wanted to make sure that was not your plan.

    BTW, test (depending on which ester...specifically if it has an ester) will flow through a 25 g with little problem. You can always run hot water over the barrel to get it to flow easier.

    i use 23 to inject 18 to draw out of individual vials and 20-21 to draw out of 10ml+ vials.

    Deca is too thick to use 25g IMO.
